This MMA fighter’s hand injury is the stuff of nightmares.
Melvin Guillard has been having a tough time since getting released from the UFC in 2014.
After cutting his ties with the World Series of Fighting earlier this year, “The Young Assassin” signed with Bellator in the hopes of rebooting his career.
Unfortunately for the lightweight, he’s now facing an extended period outside the cage after he shattered his right hand during a split decision loss to Brandon Girtz at Bellator 141.
Following the event, American Top Team coach Din Thomas posted a photo of his fighter’s injured hand on Instagram.

Bellator officials later confirmed that his hand was set and casted after the fight and he is expected to undergo surgery this week.
